About Mohamed

Dr. Mohamed Mulla brings a practical, person-focused approach to therapy.

Background and approach

He uses clear, short conversations to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, sleep problems, anger, and depression. He presents himself as a guide who respects each person's strength and story.

With eight years of experience as a Rhode Island psychologist, Dr. Mulla encourages clients to name what matters to them.

He listens first, then helps set small, realistic steps toward change. Sessions emphasize skills people can use between meetings, not just ideas discussed in the room.

He draws on methods that include the Gottman Method, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other approaches. That variety lets him match tools to a person’s goals, whether the focus is on emotion management, behavior change, or making values-based choices.

Dr. Mulla also addresses issues related to attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication struggles, and life purpose.

He works with concerns like guilt, shame, impulsivity, isolation, and men’s issues in straightforward terms. Sessions are available in English and can be scheduled for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

He supports people who live in Rhode Island and accepts international clients, helping them find the best next steps for their situation.

How therapeutic approaches adapt to online care

Dr. Mulla uses methods like the Gottman Method and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. The Gottman Method focuses on communication and building practical interaction skills that can be practiced during and between sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings and pick actions that match their values, which often fits well with online homework and short check-ins.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what helps. That process makes it easier to find methods that feel useful and realistic for daily life.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make counseling more accessible. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice and coaching. Phone meetings can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief, flexible ways to share updates, get feedback between sessions, or fit therapy into a busy day.
